Fingerprints have been widely used for personal recognition in many forensic applications. The segmentation of fingerprint images is a fundamental step in recognition systems. It classifies pixels of the image into two classes the foreground and the background. This paper proposes an improved method for fingerprint segmentation using a histogram-based thresholding approach. The main idea is to ...
This chapter introduces classical domain knowledge-based and emerging learning-based techniques for feature extraction in fingerprints. Specific sections are dedicated to explain the most effective approaches for segmentation, local orientation and frequency extraction, singularity detection and pose estimation, image enhancement, and minutiae and pore detection. The computation of global and ...
segmentation algorithms are discussed, each having a different accuracy of segmenting fingerprint image. This paper concludes the critical review of fingerprint segmentation, with all the advantages, limitations and complexities of algorithms.
FingerNet is an universal deep ConvNet for extracting fingerprint representations including orientation field, segmentation, enhenced fingerprint and minutiae. It can produce reliable results on both rolled/slap and latent fingerprints.
Slap Fingerprint Segmentation Evaluation (SlapSeg) is a series of public tests of automated slap fingerprint segmentation algorithms. Fingerprint segmentation is the act of separating or segmenting an image of the friction ridge structure of the hand into individual images of the upper-most finger joints, known as distal phalanges.

Fingerprint Image segmentation is the process of dividing the fingerprint image into regions. Before processing the input fingerprint image, it is necessary to separate foreground region from background image. The segmentation process improves the accuracy of the feature extraction method and reduces the processing time.
The purpose of this project is to segment the images using different techniques and algorithms of Computer Vision. - CarlosCujcuj/Fingerprint-Segmentation
One factor affecting performance in the system for automatic fingerprint identification is segmentation. Over thirty years' worth of literature exists regarding the method or process of image segmentation. These early methodologies for clustering can be utilised for segmentation, which serves as the basis for many new methods, including boundary-based segmentation such as Canny edge detection ...
Automatic fingerprint recognition system, modeled on segmentation using Deep Learning and Neural Networks, one more project by RSIP Vision.
Fingerprint recognition plays an important role in many commercial applications and is used by millions of people every day, e.g. for unlocking mobile phones. Fingerprint image segmentation is typically the first processing step of most fingerprint algorithms and it divides an image into foreground, the region of interest, and background.
Fingerprint segmentation algorithms are used to extract the finger print image from background. In this paper we are presenting the two fingerprint segmentation algorithms which are the modifications of existing mean and variance based approach and gradient based approach.
Accurate fingerprint segmentation is crucial for reliable fingerprint recognition systems. This paper presents two novel segmentation methods, GMFS and SUFS, inspired by the KISS (Keep It Simple and Straightforward) principle. Both methods, evaluated on a public benchmark and compared to eighteen state-of-the-art approaches, excel in terms of accuracy, while maintaining simplicity and ...
A fingerprint is an impression left on any object by the friction ridges of a human finger. Human fingerprints are unique, difficult to alter, and durable over the life period. They may be employed by police to identify individuals identity. This paper gives a detailed review of various segmentation techniques of fingerprint.
SUFS (Simplified U-net Fingerprint Segmentation): method based on a simplified U-net architecture that surpasses all previous methods evaluated on the FVC segmentation benchmark [1].
Fingerprint-based identification systems achieve higher accuracy when a slap containing multiple fingerprints of a subject is used instead of a single fingerprint. However, segmenting or auto-localizing all fingerprints in a slap image is a challenging task due to the different orientations of fingerprints, noisy backgrounds, and the smaller size of fingertip components. The presence of slap ...
Fingerprint segmentation is a crucial step for automatic fingerprint recognition. In this paper, we present an algorithm to extract fingerprint foreground using active contour model, a discriminative feature based on Fisher measure first be constructed to indicate foreground and background, however, the feature fails to describe the foreground and background when applied to those too dry ...
